Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Grand theft in pick No. 127: the Bills steal Burke and grade out a B.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Denzel Burke, pick No. 127, roughly 39 picks past where he belonged.

The Burke pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at linebacker, edge rusher and other spots. The Jones Jr. pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped linebacker, which is a strange place to end up.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the linebacker spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In No. 30 they get a load in the middle at a price that makes it sweeter. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick58 Rnd2 Maxwell Hairston
The board had cheaper options than Maxwell Hairston at slot 58, and it noticed. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick62 Rnd2 Xavier Watts
Xavier Watts at pick No. 62 is money in the bank, a safety taken below his worth. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick100 Rnd3 Emery Jones Jr.
A big swing on Emery Jones Jr. at Round 3, Pick 36, well ahead of any board in the building. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick108 Rnd4 Brashard Smith
They took Brashard Smith at par in pick 108, which is nothing to complain about. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick127 Rnd4 Denzel Burke
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Denzel Burke at cornerback with linebacker, edge rusher and other spots open.
Pick171 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
By-the-book stuff, Dont'e Thornton Jr. at the 171st overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick179 Rnd6 JJ Pegues
Fair-plus on JJ Pegues, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick208 Rnd6 Donovan Edwards
They robbed the room for Donovan Edwards here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
